I could list too many to count, but just want to make point the sometimes the most beautiful are not HOFers, in fact I think the greater the player the more it seems to swing aesthetics. For example, I can't see any way the Walter Johnson portrait in yellow is the very best t206--at best it's tied with about 50 other portraits and action shots. Is it really more beautiful (beyond value), to cite just one example, than this?

While I agree the beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I totally agree with this comment above. Thus, I present the most beautiful pre-war card of all time:



But, even with the "greater the player" bias described above, this post-war card takes the cake:

I would like to add a Gehrig DeLong to the mix. Not my card certainly not in my price range.

Love the Del Howard. Glad I have it in a PSA 6. If value went on beauty, I guess it would be worth $1200 not $200.
